DATASPHERE EDINBURGH SCIENCE FESTIVAL

This time Human AutomatArt is in Edinburgh from 9 to April the 24th, 10am to 5pm, for the DataSphere exhibition, for Edinburgh Science Festival, at the National Museums of Scotland.

As Broadway World writes “The arts and sciences are often seen as disparate practices, but they are closer cousins than many may think: from tales of scientific discovery littered throughout history to the countless artists who have taken inspiration from the romance and mystery of the cosmos. This year’s Edinburgh Science Festival is dedicated to showing the many ways in which the arts and sciences are interconnected – two sides of the same coin often learning from one another to reach deeper connection and collective enlightenment – and to providing a platform for creatives to showcase their work.

Amanda Tyndall, Festival and Creative Director at Edinburgh Science said: “Art and science are both highly creative endeavours and the Festival each year aims to celebrate this creativity and the people that make it possible, connecting audiences with important science topics in innovative ways to deliver not just facts but emotional connections.”

Art also finds its way into the exhibition programme with the DATASPHERE exhibition at the National Museum of Scotland featuring artwork by Scottish artists Alan Brown and Silent Chaos, both supported by PLACE (Platforms for Creative Excellence Programme) funding.

Every human being has become a living set of data and a potential content creator. Thanks to Silent Chaos, the Museum’s Grand Gallery becomes a bespoke information collector, gathering data from the people visiting and the activities occurring here, via a network of different sensors, which are distributed around the space and visualised live on this screen.”

SILENT CHAOS – ORIGINS LIVE

24th May 2019  12:00 am – 12:30 am

programme/artist information

“Origins” was specifically crafted for radio and it is supposed to be listened in a relaxing place, in darkness, so the listener can be easily taken to the worlds Silent Chaos are creating. The tense structured drones create an atmosphere where your sense of historical time is lost, leaving you suspended in a dark and dreamy world, and the far but pressing drums that sneak into that world bring you to ancient times, where the super humans archetypes still reign.

Silent Chaos (Marta Noone – Modular Synthesizer, Vocals, FX & Ugo Vantini – Electronic Drums and Percussions, Loops, Samplers), is a conceptual experimental music project founded in Rome in 2016, now based in the north-east of Scotland. Their music nourishes of non-linear time, of conceptual and performing circularity: ancient and futuristic sounds advance in a spiral-shaped way. Music is structured but not predictable, in an impromptu composition based on improvisation. Past, present and future times mash up in ancient sonorities and electronic twistings, filtered through the personal musical experiences. They have left behind every formality of instrument’s classic execution.

RADIOPHRENIA is a temporary art radio station – a two-week exploration into current trends in sound and transmission arts.
